Question

Draw condensed structural diagram or line diagram for:?

Answer 1

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

Step 1. Draw a continuous chain of seven carbon atoms

Step 2. Add two ethyl groups to `"C3"`

Step 3. Add a methyl group to `"C4"`

And you have your bond-line structure.

Here's one way to write the condensed structure:

`"CH"_3"CH"_2"CH"_2"CH"("CH"_3)"C"("CH"_2"CH"_3)_3`
